Back on today though!

Fingers crossed for this week

supersaluki · 16/06/2008 12:13

I have not been posting for the last three weeks but just want to say I have lost 3lb in that time
so quite happy with that - this time next year I would have been at target for a few weeks if I keep up that average

good luck with your weighins this week everyone

andyrobo237 · 16/06/2008 20:07

Right - I am joining in with this thread (again!!). Cant get to classes, so any help and motivation will be greatly appreciated - need to lose at least half a stone before hols in July (5 weeks). Going to get weighed at chemist tomorrow lunchtime, so I have a 'proper' record of the weight.

Got all the books, just need to stick to it! Also I am diabetic as wel, so makes it difficult as have to look at sugar in foods as well.

Can anyone post the password so I can get a little extra help - cheers!

Tommy · 16/06/2008 22:29

another one who had a bad weekend - but it was my birthday so I think I'm allowed

Weigh in is tomorrow so we'll see then - I reckon I've maintained ot out on a pound or two which will annoy me.

Need to get back on the wagon.

Has anyone tried the potato based pizza in the current SW magazine?

mullerlight · 17/06/2008 06:47

lost 2 pounds last night at weigh in so very chuffed. Don't get it as was naughty with the lemon cupcakes couple of day ago.
Asked my consultant if it takes time for the fat to attach itself after a naughty binge? I reckon it hasn't settled on hips yet but she said that it would show on scales but I am sceptical

P.S)

Sorry, too early and forgot to say hi in my last post.
Hi to andyrobo237 and all fellow slimmers.
Password this week is tennis.

Furball · 17/06/2008 07:18

welldone mullerlight!

Tommy - we had a tasting last week and someone made the pizza - not sure whether they followed the instructions as the potato was quite thick but it was just a soggy mess of potato and tomato. It did make a nice cheese and potato pie though!

mullerlight · 17/06/2008 08:33

Hi furball, how is it going wiv you?

Tommy- couple of weeks ago one of our lot made the pizza and it all went wrong too and i think you have to chill it in the fridge for a few hours before you cook it so it sets a bit.

Don't quote me on it but worth a go

sticktoit · 17/06/2008 12:29

Hey all

I weighed in last night and lost the 1lb that I put on last week. MY AF came on Sunday though so I'm probs retaining a lot of water. Really craving sugary foods at mo too....in fact last night I ate so much rubbish that I woke up gagging with heartburn and had to take some gaviscon. That'll teach me!!

Determined to have a good week though.

Tommy · 17/06/2008 17:56

thanks everyone. The recipe said to chill overnight which might be a bit excessive but I can see where they're cvoming from. I will try it soon - we big pizza fans here and DH is getting withdrawal symptons

Can't believe I lost 2lbs this week . Will have to be extra good this week as I'm sure my indulgent weekend will catch up with me sometime

PeckaRolloverAgain · 17/06/2008 17:57

Can anyone tell me

  1. this weeks password
  2. the syn value of a fishfinger!

thanks!

Tommy · 17/06/2008 18:13

how do you do the hash browns? I tried to make some the other day and they were disastrous!

PeckaRolloverAgain · 18/06/2008 09:31

For the hash browns:

Par boil potatoes for 5 minutes
Take out and leave to cool down for a few minutes
Chop onion
Beat an egg
Grate the potato
LOADS of seasoning

Mix together and form into little shapes - fry in fry light slowly for about 8 minutes until brown

Yum!

Tommy · 18/06/2008 12:58

ah.... par boiling - that's where I went wrong.
Will try them again soon!
